wdelarme Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Any one know why my appdata folder would be the only folder under shares showing the orange triangle (not protected) Quote Link to comment
ashman70 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Run the mover, it might mean that some files are on the cache drive that haven't been moved to the array, although that shouldn't be the case for the appdata share. Quote Link to comment
mr-hexen Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 because it's set as cache-only. Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Do you have a single cache drive? Since a cache-only share is outside the unRAID array it is only protected if you have a cache pool. Quote Link to comment

Squid Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 It's all because you have Disk 7 not installed, but the array is expecting that. Since you only have a single parity drive, what this means is that should any drive decide to give up the biscuit, you will not be able to rebuild it at all. Why is disk 7 not installed? Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Ah, now it becomes clear. You at one point assigned a drive to Disk 7, and it has since failed or been removed. It is being emulated by the parity drive and the rest of your data drives, so you are unprotected from another drive failing, since you only have a single parity and a failed drive. Unprotected shares = orange triangle. Quote Link to comment
John Graham Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Thanks .. I See ... the drive went bad and i pulled it out. Have not found a way to remove it from the list ... Guest i now need help with that how to remove drive 7 John G, Quote Link to comment

When a drive is in the failed state, trying to do a parity check won't work, because there is nothing to verify against, so instead unraid does a read check to see if the remaining drives give any read errors.

Guest i now need help with that Since it appears that you emptied the drive before removing it, what you need to do is Tools - New Config. Reassign all the drives (make a note of which one was your parity drive first), then when you start the array, it will rebuild the parity and you'll be back in business. Quote Link to comment

Just be very careful to note which serial number goes in each slot and you will be fine. Quote Link to comment

With "New Config" you can choose to retain the parity disk assignment. This will keep the current parity disk assigned as is, while data disks can be newly assigned. As mentioned before, new assignments of data disks will not cause data loss. Quote Link to comment
